COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONRobust. Brewed with a “heelch” (that means “a lot” in Boontling) of Columbus, Chinook, and Cascade hops, our double IPA has a palate pleasing bitterness that is artfully balanced with a full-bodied malt foundation. With a deep color of polished brass and a nose that sings of pink grapefruit and redwood needles, the rich biscuit-like malt flavors are intertwined with hints of vanilla, mangoes, and peppercorns leading to a deep, warming finish.

On tap at Kasey?s Tavern in a pint glass. Big fan of this bar. Orange and golden in color. Quarter finger of head. Light lacing. Aroma has elements of grain and malt with an understated hop characteristic. Taste is not as bright as other IPAs and double IPAs but has a strong hop quality. Bitterness plays a big part especially at the end and in the aftertaste. Slight sweetness of tropical fruit comes into play as well. Easy to drink with a sugary mouthfeel. Worth a sample if you stumble across it.

Bottle from Marham LCBO A: citrusy, grapefruit, biscuity, light mango app: clear light copper with thick white head and good lacing. T/p: med body with moderate long bitter finish. O: I couldn’t find a bottling date on the label and sadly looks like I might have it an old bottle. Aromatics are on the low side. hopefully I will be able to find a fresher version and I will gladly update my rating after.
